    The léine

    Hi all,

    I'm new to this forum. I am a regular wearer of the Léine and Brat, the original clothing of the Irish and the Scottish Highlanders. As the Léine came first, I wondered if anyone had an interest in this unusual garment. The kilt is a great item to wear, but the Léine is better! As one who has worn both, I can testify to that.
